LOVE Plus Minus

Cold War

"Well, the piranha is in a bad mood? Why?" the girl asked inwardly while putting together her things in the dressing room.

Dave took a deep breath, while turning on the shower. Left warm from the water now rained down on his scalp, until it flowed all over his body.

"Thank God, he's fine." Dave murmured inwardly.

The man chose to stand for a long time under the warm water, to tease the anxious and tired that had lodged in his chest.

Meanwhile in the room Cintya had already laid her body on the sofa, while her right hand grabbed the remote to turn on the tv. The girl changed the broadcast from one event to another.

"there's really no interesting event" he murmured slowly.

Suddenly the tv channel aired soap operas, a very natural thing happened in the evening series on Indonesian television broadcasts. Cintya is seen enjoying the show, while occasionally yawning from sleepiness, while Dave is still not done with his business in the bathroom.

Cintya glanced at the beautiful circular watch on her wrist.

"Ngapain the piranha in the bathroom since? Bodo very, yes, at least he actually turned into a fish." the girl muttered while returning to focus on watching television.

Dave combed his hair that was still wet with water. After finishing with the showers the man rushed towards the dressing room. The mood has now improved, since knowing the whereabouts of the wife.

In the dressing room, Dave frowned at the puzzled look of the new residents of the Cintya closet. All he knew was that the girl was not the shopaholic type who enjoyed shopping. Dave approached several new bags and shoes lined up in his wife's closet, all of them brand names.

"He's shopping? but why isn't there a notification from the card I gave him? Where does he shop with money?" Dave asked in his heart.

After a long period of checking the items, Dave immediately put on his clothes and rushed out of the changing room.

"Cintya, where are you going? The TV was left on." murmured Dave was worried.

Suddenly he was afraid of his wife disappearing again like all day. Dave did not see Cintya's body covered by the backrest of the sofa.

Dave sped up the pace of approaching the TV and the Sofa. "Oh, overslept. Thank goodness." murmured Dave was relieved when he found a tiny figure curled up like a kitten on the sofa.

"Wake up, right? Wakeup? No? No? Awake" Dave weighed in his heart.

A part of his heart said to immediately wake the girl up for dinner, but his brain and mind said something else.

"Why did I wake up this troublemaker? I'd better keep quiet until he realizes his mistake." once again Dave sat down before leaving the room and Cintya who's been lulled into dreamland.

🌹🌹🌹Cintya POV on🌹🌹🌹

I squirm slowly, my body feels pain in the back. I slowly opened my eyes until the dim light in the room filled my cornea.

"What time is this?" I muttered weakly, reluctant to rise from my sleeping position.

Crutches.kruk..krukkkkkk...

The noise and uncomfortable feeling in my stomach disturbed me, so I decided to wake up. A little surprised I looked around the room, realizing that I was asleep on the sofa.

After looking at the entire room, I realized the piranha had already fallen asleep in bed and it was late at night.

"Basar piranha." I was upset.

Well I'm upset now. Upset that Dave didn't wake me up for dinner at all and let me fall asleep on the couch until midnight.

"I'm lucky to marry a piranha fish ya gini." I nagged cynically while stepping into the bathroom, to clean myself.

While enjoying soaking in the warm water, I occasionally returned to swearing at Dave.

"It's not a lot of attention being a guy."

"Well, do you have a wife if you can't take care of it? Singles." I nagged as I stepped out of the bath up.

After rinsing under the shower, I left the bathroom and rushed to the dressing room. After changing clothes, while wearing regular skincare and staring at my face in the mirror I again nagged at Dave.

"Is it hard to wake me up?"

sentence after sentence of protest came out from my lips. Really my level of annoyance at piranha is now at the level of a god.

While chewing food I sent a short message to my best friend Noni.

"Gue spes so much with your sister. Have I been locked out since this afternoon? eating is not me either. He even delights in sleeping in bed and lets me sleep on the couch all night. Luckily I woke up because of Laper. Your brother is bule ngeselin."

My message was sent to Noni, a few minutes later a notification came into my phone.

"Lu's sulking again, isn't Cin the same brother Dave? I smell the scents of falling in love 😂😂"

"What the hell are you?" my protest was upset while choosing to ignore the message from Noni.

🌹🌹🌹Cintya POV off 🌹🌹🌹

\*\*\*

Dave was waiting for Cintya in the car, the man was still reluctant to talk to his wife.

While inside the house with a little stirring, Cintya immediately rushed after Dave.

"Gue hasn't been greeted since waking up. I wasn't invited to breakfast. I was also left at the dinner table. What does this piranha want?"

While stepping out of the house Cintya still muttered to herself.

Along the way to the Cintya campus, no one opened their voices. Silent and awkward, making the journey they used to go through felt even further.

"The cave..." Cintya opened her voice trying to break the silence.

....

"Are you having a toothache?" ask Cintya seriously. He struggled desperately to think positively since this morning.

.....

"It hurts a lot?" ask Cintya again while putting on an anxious face, now her sitting position is a little facing the husband who is busy driving.

.....

"Are you really having a toothache?" cintya asked as her hand moved touching one side of Dave's cheek.

.....

'skiiiiiiiiit' Dave suddenly stopped the speed of the car he was driving.

"Awuuuuh...." Shouting, Cintya felt her head hit something when her body crashed forward due to the sudden brake action of the driver, but did not feel so sick.

"Basar piranha, nyetir aja not really." scorned Cintya pulled her body back to its original position.

"uh...." Cintya was stunned when she realized that Dave's hand was right where her head had been sucked.

"So I sucked piranha's hand? Pantes is not sick." muttered Cintya in the heart.

'c.deg...deg....deg...'

"My heart, ah must be a surprise effect because the piranha is not perfect for nih."

"You're okay, right? Is anyone sick?" Dave finally opened his voice while stroking the top of Cintya's head that had been slammed into his palm.

"Huwaaa.. Why is my face suddenly hot?" Cintya screamed in her heart while fanning her face with both hands.

"Your hand hurts?" ask Dave with a guilty face.

"Piranhas.. Diems. The real nyetir." protested Cintya while throwing her gaze in the opposite direction to the existence of the husband.

Slowly, Dave drove back his sports car. Cleaving the crowd of Jakarta, to the campus where the wife studied.

\*\*\*

In Dave's heart said, "Diwelin send a message, to the readers sorry ya up his long time because of the busy lecture. Starting today will be up every day if you like and comment a lot plus votes too."
